I did not stay with the hospital long…

Systems Relationship Assignment 1. Muscular System and Skeletal System The muscular system is dependent on the skeletal system to provide blood cells to the muscles. The blood cells contain oxygen which is converted into ATP during cellular respiration. The ATP is needed to perform daily tasks like walking. The skeletal system supports the striated muscle which allows movement to occur. The striated muscle connects the bone and muscle together. The skeletal system relies on the muscular system…
